Julian Brandt: "We rode our luck"
Julian Brandt said Borussia Dortmund rode their luck in today's 1-0 win over Hoffenheim.
Julian Brandt admitted luck was with Borussia Dortmund as they overcame Hoffenheim 1-0 today.
"It wasn't an easy game. We rode our luck. There were a lot of chances on both sides. Greg made some super saves. We'll very happily take the points. We've often lost games like this in the past – we've progressed in that sense," Brandt told Sky as quoted by Borussia Dortmund.
"This is a strong position right now. However, we need to keep going, because we could quickly ruin it for ourselves. All in all, lots of things are working out at the moment: we're efficient and getting a slice of luck. Many of the lads are in good form. We have an extremely strong bench and are bringing on lads who are scoring important goals. The success is the result of everything.
"We'll take the momentum and try to keep riding the wave. However, we must keep our feet on the ground and remind ourselves that it's still only February. There's a long road with hard work ahead of us."
Brandt and Dortmund have now won nine games in a row.
